not that surprising to fans who knew this day would come. it appears he won't be out too long. immediately after the hit, team doctors knew he had a concussion. he couldn't remember the score or what quarter it was. he said griffin seemed with it after the game. rg3, of course, enjoying a day of rest today. didn't practice with his teammates while undergoing tests. but mike shanahan said right now, it looks good that rg3 will be able to play on sunday against minnesota. >> i got a chance to talk to him the last 15, 20 minutes. he is good, no dizziness, no headaches, no vomiting. he feels like he has done well on the tests he has taken so far. he'll see a neurosurgeon here in about an hour, hour and a half. he'll go through the tests with

>> he'll figure it out. >> as he watches the end of the third quarter and sees this team lose, he's not going to want to experience that again, obviously. >> he knows he has to be on the field. >> no question. >> see that step line? step over it. your value is being on the field. >> a number of people said they believe rg3 will learn. the concern right now is he'll recover from this. once you had one concussion, the feeling is you are prone to have others. >> get out of bounds. >> absolutely. >> thank you, bruce. anita. >> let's talk about how severe a concussion is. i spoke to a neurologist who said they pay a lot of attention to how the patient acts and feels after the impact. concussions are mild traumatic injuries that won't necessarily show up on a ct scan or mri. doctors start by asking the athlete, did you black out? did you suffer immediate memory loss? those are signs it was a bad

concussion. they perform a neurological examination, which tests for balance, coordination, vision, hearing, and reflexes and they take into account previous concussions. the damage can be cumulative. as the athlete recovers, they may be given balance tests to see how well the brain is working. the key to that recovery is complete rest. not just physical, but mental. so the brain can really heal. lesli. >> in bellefonte, pennsylvania, it is the eve of the sentencing of former penn state assistant football coach and charity founder, jerry sandusky. in june, a jury convicted sandusky of 45 counts of child sex abuse. andrea mccarren is live outside the center county courthouse where a judge will hand down the sentence tomorrow. andrea. >> reporter: lesli, there are two key questions this evening. one, what will jerry sandusky's sentence be? and two, what will he say in court tomorrow? >> you guys -- >> prosecutors emerged from a
